| I feel so sorry for Nanami...having to witness that ust when she's in a very difficult position with her own brother. |
 SEIZON SENRYAKU: Hungry 100% of the time.Vzla-IT |
| I thought that since Nanami is bro-con, finding out she's not related to Touga would make her happy since she can marry him now. I guess I don't understand how this fetish works... |
| I'd be just as traumatized as Nanami after seeing siibling together, basically naked. It was interesting that Nanami was shocked, but also disappointed, not happy, when she found out Touga wasn't her real brother! |
  |
| Why am I calling every single episode of the show the best and start all over after the next one? |
| oops, someone got caught. :o I did had a hunch about Touga not being related.. but I wish I could say the same about Anthy and Akio, ugh.. |
 |
| Damn, Nanami is about to snap now that she knows Anthy has with her brother what she wish she could have with Touga. By the way, lmao at Akio screwing Tsuwabuki's chances of having Nanami sleeping at his room. Honestly, every episode with Nanami as the focus is a pain but at least this one ended up being plot-relevant. Utena continues to be painfully ignorant about everything that's happening under her nose and the deal between Akio and Anthy was finally confirmed in its entirety. Hard to tell based on quick frames but it seems the relationship between them has stopped being consensual since quite a while. |
| I was fighting the urge to skip this one when I saw nanami as the focus, glad I didn't lmao Even if they aren't blood siblings it's still weird if Nanami's in love with Touga seeing as they were raised as siblings and she even said she sees him as one still, but also she semeed like she might be realising she doesn't like Touga that way? Not rlly sure, alls I know is no matter what they do I won't be able to bring myself to like Nanami lmao |
| Propably to late to comment about it for you, but I noticed this was also said by other people here, and I wanted to add my point of view for this. glassknuckles said: I thought that since Nanami is bro-con, finding out she's not related to Touga would make her happy since she can marry him now. I guess I don't understand how this fetish works... Nanami has a brother complex and that is why she loved Touga the way she did. I don't think she would love him the same way if she knew that he never was her real brother from when she was young. So when she discovers that Touga is not her real brother, it actually shutters her world because now she have to answer the following question - can she love someone who isn't her brother? We can see her struggle in her words: "Suddenly not having a brother... What am I suppose to do?!" - Her world got shuttered. "I still consider you my brother!", "I can't ignore everything I've felt till now!" - The only way she can stay sane. "Because I love you, Big Brother" - She can't let go of her perception of Touga being her brother, because again, can she truly love someone who isn't her brother? Now she is completely lost, can't even be near Touga and doesn't know what to do next. And to rub salt into her wound, she witnessed Anthy's and Akio's incest, which represents the peak of relationship of a siblings (the thing that Nanami desired the most for herself), and it put her in a total despair, which is also symbolized by the dramatic music, her face expression and the elevator descending, exactly as her mental state after her discoveries. |

| Incest: the episode. I'll admit, I'm so over Nanami in general and particularly her obsession with her "big brother" Touga that I could barely muster the energy to care about much of this episode. Even more so because it seems weird to me that this is even an issue, as not being blood-related changes nothing about their past relationship. Also, no shit that Akio and Anthy have been having sex. I thought that was very clearly implied by the brief scenes we saw of their weekend meetings previously, and I don't think it especially matters that Nanami of all people found out about it. Now, if Utena found out about it (remember when she was the main character, cos the show seems to have forgotten), that would be much more interesting and provide a really good set-up for the final run of episodes. |
| im overall always unconfortable when nanami comes with all the incest shit, but this episode made me REALLY uncofortable. maybe im just weak but i felt geniunely sick the whole episode, specially at the end, i cant stomach seeing anthy like that. also why does every episode of this arc have akio fucking someone |
| Well looks like it's more then confirmed now! |
